Lindeth Howe was built as a summer holiday home for a wealthy mill owner in 1897. It was situated in a 28-acre estate commanding fine views over Windermere. He rented the house out to friends for holidays. Amongst those people were the Potter family.
Bruce Canon Vernon Wentworth of Wentworth Castle, nr Barnsley, a retired Captain of Her Majesty's Grenadier Guards bought the house around the turn of the century.
